Answer:The ratio of net income in the first 6 months, to the last six months is $76,500 / $100,000. This simplifies intuitively as follows:

76500/100000

Dividing by 100: 765/1000

Dividing by 5: 153/200

The denominator 200 is only divisible by the prime numbers 2 and 5, and since the numerator 153 is not divisible by either 2 or 5, this means that this is in simplest form, and the final answer is 153/200.

Step-by-step explanation:i did the research for you this isnt my own answer therefore don't give me the credit. but hope this helped you tho :D
